Grassy Flats Resort

Marathon, FL — Florida Keys

A true one-stop destination for wing foiling and kiteboarding at a Florida Keys resort in Marathon — gear rentals, lessons, and jet ski assist all on site, plus a restaurant, a small health-focused cafe, and hotel rooms for anyone who wants to make a full trip of it. Good beginner-quality conditions since a reef far offshore keeps the water calm even on solid wind days. (grassyflats.com)

Skill level

Beginner-friendly — the reef-protected calm water makes this one of the more forgiving spots on this list even when the wind is genuinely up
